Do you want to build a Snowman….. with Cathy?

Published on December 12, 2014December 12, 2014 by Taniesa1 Comment

Hi Crafty Friends,

Designer, Cathy, is back today sharing a fab snowman layout! Take a look!

If there’s one thing my kids love, it’s building snowmen, and getting to build one in November calls for a layout. For this layout I thought what better products to use then Crafty Pickle flair and sequins. I used the Winter Mix sequins as well as two flair badges from the January flair set. The royal blues were a perfect compliment to my photos and I love the pop of pink and red. For my layout I dug deep, and I mean DEEP into my stash, there are items on this layout that I bought back around 2009-2010 that I had all about given up on ever using! There are quite a few items that I would have purged if I had actually ever gotten around to purging, but getting to use up very old stash items just makes me feel accomplished!

I love how colorful this is and the layering is just beautiful. Great job Cathy!!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Happy Crafting!

December Daily update with Treasa!

Published on December 9, 2014December 9, 2014 by Taniesa3 Comments

Hi Crafty Friends!

Treasa has been working on her December Daily and it is ADORABLE! Check out her progress!

Hi there, today I wanted to share a few cards I made for my December Daily. First up I wanted to share how I was documenting my days of the month in my album.

As soon as I seen these flair in The Crafty Pickle shop I knew I had to use them in my album. I love the silver glitter and the fun font. These Elegant December flair add the perfect touch to my pages even with some sparkle.

I also made some cards to add in my album using more of the fabulous flair found in The Crafty Pickle. First up is the card I made to document the return of our Elf on the Shelf Elvis Parsley. The Personalized Elf flairs are perfect and I love how you can get them personalized with your elf’s name.

Up next is a card that was inspired by my album that I am suing for my December Daily. I totally fell in love with the burlap and rustic look of it. So I decided to make a card using burlap and one of the flair badges from the December button flair set.

And lastly, I had to make a card to document my love of Starbucks red cups. These red cup flair buttons was a special request and I think they turned out fabulous.

I have to say that I am loving all the flair buttons that I have received from The Crafty Pickle and how I can personalize my album and cards. It makes this album so much more special. Please visit The Crafty Pickle and remember that Taniesa takes special orders, so if you don’t see it in the store, send her a message.

Don’t forget to stop by The Crafty Pickle for me fabulous and creative ideas.

Thanks Treasa! I love everything about your album so far and look forward to seeing the finished project!!!Happy Crafting!

Hi Everyone!

I hope you are all recovering nicely from turkey overload and shopping madness. Today we have a beautiful layout to share by design team member, Cathy! Take a look!

Hi everyone, Cathy here with a layout I created using awesome products from The Crafty Pickle! My layout was inspired by one I saw created by Lilith Eeckels. I loved the way she cut the large woods paper into 3rds to create interest and divide up the image. From there I used a variety of embellishments, including flair badges and sequins from the The Crafty Pickle and stamps from Close to my Heart. I just love how it turned out and I am so happy with my products from The Crafty Pickle. The flair badges are just fantastic and who doesn’t love sequins right?

Beautiful work, Cathy. Love it!

Happy Crafting!

So before I dive head first into the Christmas season, I made some birthday cards. Both feature flair & sequins from The Crafty Pickle.

I used the Birthday button flair set & the Winter Sequins mix for both of my cards.

For my second card, I started with sketch #111 fromCardabilities and made Leah’s birthday card

I love the shimmer of this “Happy Birthday” flair! It’s great for a 12 year-old girl!!

Hi Everyone!

Up on the blog today we have a terrific Project Life layout from Stephanie! Take a look!

Hey y’all! Hope you are having a Wonderful Wednesday.
I have a PL spread to share today featuring flair and sequins from The Crafty Pickle!

I have used the Autumn flair and the Autumn Sequins mix. The flatter back of these flair buttons make them easy to add to my PL pages & they fit in my album without a ton of bulk! Check out the awesome selection in the store.

The two larger journal cards are from WRMK & the smaller “Gratitude” card is from MAMBI. Fall is one of my favorite seasons & I adore these photos from a trip to an apple orchard that our family likes to visit. The flair & sequins helped give the feel of Autumn to my page.

Thanks for visiting today. Keep crafty!!

Happy Thanksgiving: Card by Carrie Bryant

Published on November 14, 2014November 14, 2014 by Taniesa3 Comments

Hi Carrie here to share with you a Thanksgiving card I made for my In-laws.

I created this card using the Thankful Heart stamp set from CTMH. I love that I could use my watercolors to bring the fall colors of the leaves to life in this set. The sentiment is perfect for Thanksgiving too.

I am in love with the Sweater Weather collection by Simple Stories.
I think this great stamp set coordinates perfectly with this collection. The fall mix sequins from TheCraftyPickle are a perfect accent to complete my card.

Thanks for stopping by today.

I wish you and yours a Blessed Holiday season filled with Thankful hearts.

Carrie

Thanks Carrie, I just love that stamp set and your card is just adorable!

Make sure to stop by this Monday for our FIRST blog hop and of course lots of prizes!

Have a great weekend everyone!
